    Kevin Smith – Co-Founder of Snipd on Redefining Podcasting With AI

    Today on The Casey Adams Show, I sit down with Kevin Smith — Co-Founder of Snipd, the AI-powered app that’s redefining how we learn from podcasts. After walking away from a safe corporate job, Kevin found himself learning more from podcasts than anywhere else — but forgetting everything he heard. That pain point sparked the vision for Snipd: a tool that uses AI to help you capture insights in real time, revisit powerful moments, and build a lifelong knowledge base from the content you already consume. In this conversation, Kevin shares how his childhood shaped his entrepreneurial drive, why moving to Zurich changed everything, and what it really takes to build something that stands out in a world dominated by giants like Spotify and YouTube. We dive deep into the future of AI in media, why reflection matters more than passive consumption, and how to build a product that truly serves people.
